While if there are time lines to study, here’s one. Olmert’s lawyers chose not to question Morris Talansky at this time. But will do so on July 17th. When he’s b-a-a-c-k. Well? What prime minister isn’t in the news? And, this one? It can ride for another six weeks? By the way, did anyone else notice, that Talansky’s claims of “hundreds of thousands,” fell a bit short? Oh. And, yes. Olmert called a billionaire for him, asking if the man needed a “bar tender,” or someone willing to do the “bar trade” at casinos. And, guess what? The billionaire hung up on Talansky. Hmm?

Of course, for the “longest playing soap opera, not in Yiddish,” this lengthy mishigas passes for “story.”

Journalism isn’t called “muck-raking” for nothing.

As to the “news” … it could have been worse. But for a “work accident” in gaza that blew up their electrical system. Among other things. What made that truck blow up early?

While, alas, Israel still trades living prisoners for the bones of its soldiers. Is there anything else to notice? Okey dokey. Perhaps all arab countries are run by weak rulers. Who make big splashes among journalists. But other than that shouldn’t give anyone the vapors.
